Software for transient analysis.

Can anyone help me with a software for analysing transient flow thru piping,
like steam and water hammer. I have searched the net and found quite a few
software but I would like to have some feedback from users.

AFT have Fathom for steady state hydraulics and Impulse for unsteady
state. You can select the model basis for friction factor from a variey
of standard methods. there are also non Newtonian models and
specialist models for papaer stock. They also have a program called
Mercury that can be used to determine investment decisions linked to
line sizing and operations. The latter software isnt cheap but is very
powerful and on a multimillion dollar project will certainly allow you
to optimise piping and equipment selection and costing.

Go to www.aft.com for more details.

I have no financial interest in AFT . Just a happy customer.
